The Nazis believed their mission was to
'masculinize' life in Germany. Hermann
Goering told women, 'Take a pot, a
dustpan and a broom, and marry a man,'
but many still became active participants
in murder and mayhem.
From the Reich Bride Schools through
the Bund Deutscher Mädel and the
bizarre Lebensborn Aryan breeding
programme to the brothels of the
Sicherheitsdienst, this book covers
the lives of women in the Third Reich,
concentrating on those who sought
personal power and influence amid the
chaos and death.
